    Peculiar bump... just a pimple?

    All right, I know there are some similar questions here, but there's something a little... off.
    About a month and a half ago I developed, what appeared to be, a pimple very far down on the outer vaginal lip. It didn't look odd, just a bit red, and it popped and bled twice. Since then, it's stopped doing anything, and is no longer painful. However, there's still a bump (albeit a smaller one) where it was. Is this unusual? Should I be concerned? Is it possible that it's developed a scar, or should I worry?

    I had something similar happen to me a 3-4 yrs. ago an i thought for sure it was an STD or something scared the hell outta me, I went to the Doc. had him look at it he told me i had developed a Cyst which i guess sometimes happens to women an it got infected an turned into a Boil, Before it turned into a Boil it looked like a skin colored bump didn't hurt at all then when it turned into a Boil it looked like a pimple, It ended up popping by itself i was just sitting there hurt like hell when it popped an it bled an then ended up healing on its own, Im not saying thats what you have but it sounds like it could be the only way to know for sure is to have the Doc. look at it.

      It could be a blackead that is under the skin... I have had a few, they hurt like he**, but they are normal.

          I wish there was a gyno that posted on here. But I suppose that would be akin to giving out medical advice and against the law.

            Pimple or herpes..please help! Really scared

            Hi, I have a similar problem..from time to time I get little lumps under the skin, think it's from sweating (I cycle everyday) two days ago I noticed I had two..both tender, but one more so, (due to location!?) I put sudocrem on it hoping it would dry it up, but this morning I woke up and I showered and it was very sore when the water hit it..and had formed a head..I know I shouldn't have, but I popped it! :/ it's not too sore now, but I'm still quite worried! I've only ever had sex with one man and that was 3 years ago! HELP!
